While both a necklace and a pendant can be worn around the neck, a pendant can be attached to any chain. Both are fashion pieces that many love to wear and can be found in any jewelry store. Pendants and necklaces come in varied lengths, styles, and designs. These pieces of jewelry can be worn for many different occasions and events. 

Types of Necklaces

There are many different types of necklaces that you can find here at Ancona. We will be exploring a couple of different styles. 

Chain

This type of necklace resembles a cable, and can be made with links of metal or single strands of a metal. Pendants can be attached to chains, giving it a more styled look. 

Choker

These necklaces sit above your collarbone and hug tighter to your neck. Some have a little breathing room and others fit more snug on your neck. 

Cascade

The necklaces have multiple rows of jewels or strands to make an outfit really stand out. These are often made with different kinds of metals and different jewels as well. They often layer. 

Single strand

The most common single strand would be a strand of pearls. This is one of the most traditional style necklaces. These often vary in length and can also be doubled if the wearer desires. 

Types of Pendants

Pendants can be attached to chains or any other piece of jewelry. This can be a necklace, anklet, or bracelet chain. Anything can be added to a chain. 

Diamonds

Pendants often feature diamonds. These can come in any cut, similar to how diamond rings do. These also come in different sizes and colors as well. 

Gemstones

Gemstone pendants are also common to add a splash of color to an outfit. Some common gemstones that are used are rubies, sapphires, and emeralds. 

Locket

This is a more classic pendant, with the user possibly adding an item or pictures inside of the locket. They come in many shapes and sizes. The idea is to have an item that is special to you close to your heart.
